Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a mechanical heater control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 2a and 2b are perspective views showing a state in which each component of a mechanical heater control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is separated, FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a coupling relationship between a block assembly, an intake disk, and an intake lever in a mechanical heater control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the main body of the mechanical heater control device is formed in a substantially triangular case shape in which a front panel 23 and a rear housing 17 are combined.

A horizontal slit-shaped knob mounting portion 25 for mounting the inner / outer knob 16 is formed on the front surface of the panel 23 and a circular groove shape for mounting the knob dial 10 downward A dial mounting portion 24 is formed.

Thus, the knob mounting portion 25 is equipped with the inner / outer knob 16 so that the user can selectively operate the inner mode or the outer mode while sliding the inner / outer knob 16 to the left and right. 24, the knob dial 10 is mounted so that the user can selectively operate the vent mode, the foot mode, the bi-level mode, and the defrost mode while rotating the knob dial 10. [

An arc-shaped guide 18 protrudes from the inner wall surface of the housing 17 around a hole in which a shaft 11 to be described later is inserted and supported. The guide 18 at this time, And a protruding straight line section therebetween.

Accordingly, the block assembly 12, which will be described later, moves along the circumference trajectory by the rotation of the mode disc 13 to be described later. When the block assembly 12 rides over the guide 18, the block assembly 12 can move forward, It becomes possible to move backward.

Here, the backward movement of the block assembly 12 is a function of inter-component interference (for example, when the intake disc stops at a position where it returns to the outside air mode, the block assembly also almost exits the guide section, And the block assembly can be withdrawn back along the slope).

Of course, it is also possible to apply a spring (not shown) to the block assembly 12 so that it is always supported backward.

A circular mode disc 13 is disposed in the inner space of the case formed by the combination of the panel 23 and the housing 17 and the mode disc 13 at this time serves as a rotation center axis of the knob dial 10 And is supported through the shaft 11 which is made of a metal.

For example, the center of the mode disc 13 is inserted while passing through the shaft 11, and both shaft bars 26 on the shaft 11 are positioned on the edges of the shaft through holes of the mode disc 13 The mode disc 13 is installed in such a structure that the mode disc 13 can be rotated together with the shaft 11. [

That is, when the knob dial 10 is turned, the mode disc 13 can be rotated together.

Particularly, the mode disc 13 is provided with a block assembly 12 which can selectively engage and disengage from the side of the intake disc 14 to be described later.

The block assembly 12 is formed of a cylindrical body having a latching portion 19 at its tip end. The block assembly 12 is fitted in a hole formed at one side of the outer side of the mode disc 13 and is capable of freely moving back and forth, ) Of the mode disc 13 is hooked on the bar groove 28b on the edge of both sides of the mode disc 13, thereby restricting self rotation.

The front end and the rear end of the block assembly 12 to be mounted in the hole of the mode disc 13 are positioned between the rear surface of the intake disc 14 and the inner wall of the housing 17 .

When the mode disc 13 is rotated, the block assembly 12 moves along the circumferential locus along the circumference of the mode disc 13 without coming off the hole of the mode disc 13, So that it can flow.

That is, since the block assembly 12 is moved in the forward direction while moving along the guide 18 having the inclined section and the protruding straight section on both sides, the block assembly 12 can be moved So that the engagement with the side of the intake disk 14 can be released while moving backward as soon as the guide section is out of the guide section.

The leading end latching part 19 of the block assembly 12 is formed as an inclined surface opposite to the one vertical surface and can be engaged with the rear disk holding jaw 29 of the intake disk 14 through the vertical surface And it is possible to avoid the engagement with the disk engagement jaw 29 of the intake disk 14 through the inclined surface.

The rear end of the block assembly 12 is conical so that the resistance when the guide assembly 18 contacts the wall of the housing 18 or the housing can be minimized.

A ring-shaped intake disk 14 is disposed coaxially on the front surface of the mode disk 13 and is provided in the inner space of the case formed by the combination of the panel 23 and the housing 17, Is supported by being fitted on the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical disk support portion (30) of the disk-shaped disk support (30).

A disk engaging jaw 29 is formed in the rear edge region of the intake disk 14. The disk engaging jaw 29 at this time is engaged with the leading end engaging portion 19 of the block assembly 12 in the mode disk 13. [ As shown in FIG.

Thus, when the locking portion 19 of the block assembly 12 comes to the position of the disk locking jaw 29 of the intake disk 14 due to the rotation of the mode disk 13, The disk 19 is pushed in the state of being caught by the disk engagement jaw 29, so that the disk 14 can be rotated.

That is, the mode disc 13 and the intake disc 14 can be rotated together by the engaging action between the engagement portion 19 and the disc engagement protrusion 29.

An engaging pin 20 is formed on one side of the outer circumferential surface of the intake disk 14 so as to extend horizontally toward the rear. The engaging pin 20 is used to engage the intake lever 15 So that it can be bound.

That is, the engaging pin 20 of the intake disc 14 is caught in the engaging hole 21 formed in the vertical end of the intake lever 15 at the lower end thereof. The engaging pin 20, The intake lever 15 can be slid when the intake disk 14 is rotated by the coupling structure between the intake camshaft 21 and the intake camshaft 21.

Further, an intake lever 15 and an inside / outside knob 16, which are operating means for selecting the inside and outside air modes, are provided.

The intake lever 15 is disposed in the case just above the intake disc 14 and the front bar portion extends forward to engage with the inner / outer knob 16 while passing through the slit of the knob mounting portion 25 (20) of the intake disk (14) through the engagement hole (21) formed at the lower end.

The intake lever 15 installed in this manner is supported by a structure that is guided at the time of slide movement by the intake rail 22 disposed at the upper side of the lever while being fixed inside the case.

That is, the intake rails 22 are installed horizontally and horizontally, and the rail projections 22a at the upper ends of the intake levers 15 are inserted into the rail grooves 22b of the intake rails 22 The intake lever 15 can be slid to the left and right while being guided by the intake rail 22 when the intake lever 15 is slid leftward and rightward.

Therefore, the operation state of the mechanical heater control device constructed as described above will be described below.

When the window is wet, it is preferable to select the defrost mode. At this time, it is preferable to use the air introduced from the outside, that is, to select the outside air mode to quickly remove the moisture.

When the user turns the knob dial 10 at the position of the defrost mode symbol displayed on the front face of the dial mounting portion 24, the mode disk 13 connected to the shaft 11 rotates.

At the same time, as shown in FIG. 4, the block assembly 12 which moves together with the mode disc 13 is moved forward by moving upward along the guide surface of the guide 18 while passing the MIX position At this time, the leading end latching portion 19 of the block assembly 12 is in a state of interfering with the disk latching jaw 29 on the rear surface of the intake disk 14. [

When the knob dial 10 is rotated in the same direction as the knob dial 10, the engagement portion 19 of the block assembly 12 pushes the disk engagement jaw 29 of the intake disk 14 in a dry state, As shown in FIG.

When the intake disc 14 rotates in this manner, the intake lever 15 and the inner / outer knob 16 are slid by the engagement pin 20, and the inner / outer knob 16 is moved to a position where the ambient mode symbol exists At this point in time, the block assembly 12 also descends along the inclined surface at the point where the guide straight line section ends, and the engagement with the side of the intake disk 14 is released.

Here, the process of controlling the HVAC intake door through the cable according to the movement of the knob dial and the movement of the inside / outside knob is the same as that of the conventional art, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In this way, the defrost mode is selected by the rotation operation of the knob dial 10, and at the same time, the inside / outside knob 16 is also automatically moved to the outside air mode while sliding along with the knob dial 10 so that the window moisture removing commerciality can be improved.
